Aroma Bakery & Coffee — Restaurant in Philadelphia

Not sure how this place has a 4.9 overall rating but I think it is because people in the USA don’t have anything decent to compare it to so a place as mediocre as this one rates high.

The matcha latte barely had a matcha taste. They don’t even know how to make a proper cup of matcha prior to pouring it into the milk. If that matcha came from Japan, it’s old and or the cheapest matcha they could possibly purchase because it barely has any actual matcha flavor. I think as long as there is enough sugar syrup and other flavored syrups or additives in an American “matcha” drink, people who don’t actually drink matcha will think it’s delicious.

The Walmart and McDonald’s society people...

Had an amazing time at Aroma!! I have been there twice, within a week, with two different friends, and each time we have had an amazing time. The location is very cozy and beautifully decorated. The staff at front and owner are incredibly kind and knowledgeable about all of the delicious sweets. We have tried the chocolate popsicle, tiramisu, mint tea and more. Highly, highly recommend as a pick me up treat or something nice to show your friend visiting in town. The owner is the baker and is often found in the back kitchen whipping up some cool new things. Kina at the front is very friendly....

Tasty food, great service, and calming atmosphere. Loved the drinks. My spouse got the espresso sunrise and I got the mango matcha drink (both were seasonal drinks). The sandwich is definitely worth having. Lots of fillings per bite to enjoy, and they didn’t skimp out on the avocado or chicken. The chicken and mushroom soup is good too. I wish there was a little more chicken per bite, but that’s ok. Comfortable seating, and not loud at all. The biggest table they have is a 3 top, so if you’re planning to eat in as a group keep that in mind. I’d be happy...
